Does Bill or Satya write code anymore? It could very well be that they consider security the top priority but it's a moot point because they're so removed from operations.

Although I would suspect that you're effectively right in that they either don't have it as a top priority or think they do but have a reveal preference of they don't. For example, an engineer that does rigorous security testing and finds nothing as well as launches one project gets promoted less often than an engineer that launches two projects and doesn't do rigorous security testing.
